Peter,

There used to be a thread on the Lynx in Vietnam. That has disappeared for some reason. This is the next best one: http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=13686

Default Cozy

Guys,

Started mocking up some of the kit that equips the Lynx, in this case the Bren gun. Certainly makes the crew compartment quite cozy. The Lynx is an open topped vehicle, I can only imagine how claustrophobic it must be in an enclosed armoured vehicle.

Default Spring has sprung

Guys,

Our youngest grandaughter, Grace missed school today due to a dentist's appointment, and of course I was on the hook to provide some entertainment. Her first request was to go for a spin in the Lynx. After that it was the Mustang's turn. Enjoy, we did. Peter

At least she got her priorities right, Lynx first and some other old car next. Hahaha!
